Just as it was for the last election in 2016, voter registration tables and polling stations will be in the parking lot of the Barking Lot pet supply store.

Anyone who is a “stakeholder” in the neighborhood (shown in the accompanying map) may vote. Those who live, work or own property in the neighborhood may cast two votes — one vote for a representative of the geographic area where the voter lives, works or owns property, and one vote in a special interest category for which that voter qualifies. Any voter may vote in the “at-large” special interest category. Registering to vote requires documentation to prove the voter’s address and qualification to vote in a special interest category.

The elections are being overseen by the GWNC Elections Committee, chaired by director Max Kirkham, who also serves as secretary of both the board and its Land Use Committee. At the forum, Kirkham read statements submitted by four candidates who could not attend.

The GWNC held a candidate Forum preceding its Feb. 13 board of directors meeting, and most candidates attended and gave brief speeches about their candidacies. Three candidates who are running unopposed did not speak, but eight did. In a race where there are two candidates, the runner-up will become the alternate director, to participate in meetings whenever the director is absent.

Only one race has more than two candidates, and all three of those candidates spoke at the forum. The contested race is in Area 7, which is the Larchmont Village neighborhood between Beverly and Melrose, from Arden Blvd. to Wilton Pl. The three candidates are residents Vincent Cox, Charles D’Atri and Brian Magaway Yanuaria.
